I would like to nominate my beautiful daughter, Kaydance. Since Kaydance was born she has faced so many obstacles. Some she has overcome, some she continues to work on and she is faced with new obstacles everyday. But one thing always remains the same- she always has a smile on her face. Although she can be shy, people seem to gravitate towards her because she has such a kind heart and gentle nature. Kaydance enjoys her independence. Being able to use her power wheelchair is the main way she is able to be her own person and not have to count on anyone else. All Kaydance wants is to be like everyone else, and be part of a community. She loves to dance- and taking dance lessons is something she talks about on a daily basis. Just something as simple as going grocery shopping with me is something that Kaydance would love to do. But not having a proper vehicle to transport her chair makes things as simple as that, near impossible for us. As any parent does- I only want what is best for my children. I want to help Kaydance to reach her full potential – she has big dreams just like any other child. And this van could help make her dreams come true. Living with Cerebral Palsy is an everyday struggle, but Kaydance is the most amazing person I know – and I wouldnt change her for the world. But just think how much you could change her world by voting for her! Thank you so much to the people who have made this contest possible. You are bringing awareness to a great cause, one that my family and I hold near and dear to our hearts. Thank You!!!

When considering purchasing a WAV – wheelchair accessible vehicle, you should first evaluate your needs, lifestyle and daily routine, establish a budget and educate yourself about the several mobility options available for people with disabilities.

Todays question to get an extra vote is tricky watch out for double negatives!

Did you know:A driver that plans to regularly carry a passenger with a disability should contact their local NMEDA dealer before purchasing a wheelchair accessible vehicle? Not doing so can cause harm to passengers, the driver and others on the road.
